The short answer would be, which part of not supported are you
having trouble understanding?
There does, however, appear to be 2 alternatives. One would be to
get a scsi card whichis in fact supported, or the other would be to join
the people who are currently arranging to pay someone (Drew Eckhart?) to
write one.
You could write on yourself, but as you'd need to buy another card
in order to install linux and write the dirver, that might not be the
best option.
